The California Highway Patrol reports a powerline is down across Singley Road, near where it turns into Loleta Drive, after a vehicle struck a pole.

PG&E spokeswoman Brittany McKannay said the outage has affected about 1,580 customers in the Singley Road area.

She said PG&E crews were in the area of the accident as of 5 p.m., working to get power restored.

An employee of Bear River Casino reports the powerline was lying across the road when he was on his way to work. He said power is out at the casino, and the building is running on generators.
